Active Directory doesn't really scream top-secret security to me. Maybe someone with more knowledge can chime in here: Is AD really considered best of breed for what it offers, esp. in terms of security? Or am I not giving it enough credit?

Is there any better solution for large scale AAA than Kerberos/AD? I think it does the job pretty decently for the large problem that it encompasses.

Maybe I'm just judging too much from personal experience working under a system that may be poorly implemented.
